Questions re Early Entry and BOG and Seven Dwarfs

[charlielinda3]

Hi! I had an 8:10 for Crystal Palace but knew my husband really didn't want to have a character breakfast with Pooh's Friends. He does so much for me I decided we could skip but really wanted to go early to MK. I was able to snag a 8:35 BOG breakfast for next Monday. How early will we be allowed to enter MK? How early would they let us sit for breakfast? Should we head right to Seven Dwarfs after breakfast. We have a FP+ about 2:00. Any advice would be greatly appreciated.

Probably 20 -30 minutes before your ADR. You can try checking in for breakfast as soon as you arrive at the castle. It depends on how quickly they fill up that morning. If admitted at your ADR time, you won't be out before RD, so there will already be a pretty good queue going at SDMT. But you can check the posted wait time when you leave the beasts castle.

We had a 8:25 ADR for CP and when we arrived we were directed to the early ADR line along with everyone else who had pre park opening ADRs. We got there at 7:15ish and were about 3 groups of people back from the front of the line. By the time they started letting us all in at 7:50 or so there were a few hundred people waiting behind us. Also, we checked in at CP just before 8 and were seated by 8:10.

Roughly how long should we expect the BOG breakfast to take, from check-in to finishing our meal?

We had an 8:05 BOG and we went in with all the masses. We were done eating by 8:35 and lined up for 7DMT. We were able to ride one of the first trains out!!!

Ours took about 30 minutes. Pre ordering will shave time off. People ordering at the kiosks took up a good chunk of time.
We had an 8:25 Rez and were let in the park at 7:50 am, with everyone else, regardless of Rez time. We did not have to wait until 8:25 to enter the Resaurant. We had plenty of time to relax and eat slow. We were done by 8:30 and just hanging out in the quickly filling dining room.
Hubs and kid went to 7dmt after but I went to pp instead. I rode completely alone, not a single person in the queue or even any of the boats. Could have easily ridden twice.

Thanks. Our ADR is for 8:20 and I do plan to pre-order so hopefully it'll go relatively quickly. I couldn't get a FP+ for A&E so we're going to head there right after we finish breakfast and hope for a reasonable wait time.
